Are there perl-modules for the transformation of XML/XSLT into the target markup? If not this might be a major problem. This would require mhonarc users to have a standalone XSLT-Processor that has to be run after mhonarc updated the DB. (Preferably only transforming changed documents) Unfortunately you can't yet rely on the browser to do this transformation. -- Daniel
